"Excellent Dermatology Team."

About: Ninewells Hospital / Dermatology Queen Elizabeth University Hospital Glasgow / Dermatology (Skin Conditions)

(as the patient),

I have been under the care of Dr. Kerr at the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital for a couple of years after developing a severe sunlight reactive condition on top of severe eczema that I have had since childhood. 

Although, both conditions can only be managed and not cured I wanted to thank this particular department and that of Dundee's Photodermatology department for their professionalism. In particular Dr.Dawe of Ninewells Hospital, Dundee, has always been very committed and caring in his role, to assess and give detailed recommendations.

I feel much better equipped to manage my condition and  to understand why my condition has developed in the first place. I think dermatology is very much overlooked in general, without understanding the overall impact on a person's life. Thankfully, Dr. Kerr and Dr.Dawe and their nursing staff have been more than helpful. 

I would also like to draw attention to the work of Dr.MacDonald in her recent investigations for my contact allergies and for being very professional, friendly and informative. I have never left this clinic without feeling very supported. They all work and communicate well together, which is beneficial.
